Pawn Stars: Sneak Peek of Pawn Stars
Sometimes it doesn't take much to entertain me. Lately I've found myself watching a TV reality series called Pawn Stars - and for those who aren't familiar with the show let me just say that it's better than it sounds. (Video below.) It is truly amazing to see some of the odd objects that people bring in to pawn or sell - although there is obviously some staging going on. After all, you can't very well keep the cameras rolling continuously just on the off chance that someone will walk in with a Super Bowl [...]

The Music of LOST: Season 1

I admit it. I'm one of those geeks who can't wait for the start of LOST Season 6 tonight. Its really the only TV show that I watch, and I fully blame my buddy Gorrck's wife Sa-Rock for getting me addicted at the start of Season 2 (when the castaways were trying to find out what was in "The Hatch"). Last year I started a project where I was going to re-watch all of the previous LOST episodes, take detailed notes, and start a LOST reading and song list. The LOST writers, editors, producers, whoever [...]

LOST: A Very Special Sunday Mix Tape

LOST: A Very Special Sunday Mix Tape There remain less than 48 hours until the season six premiere of LOST . This evening my little crew reached the end of our series re-watch.

Two people, Sebastian and Quiggs, had never seen any of the show before. Now they are in the exact same spot as us. I've had three months to closely inspect the series, and feel comfortable answering the same ten questions posed in this most recent issue of [...]

Leonard Cohen: He's Grammy's Man

Everybody knows - Leonard Cohen
Filed under: Exclusive , Grammy Awards , Between the Notes , Canada Some artists, like the Rolling Stones back in 1986, get their Grammy lifetime achievement recognition too early; others come, as with Michael Jackson this year, sadly too late. But 75-year-old Leonard Cohen has, as always, impeccable timing. Cohen's Grammy 2010 Lifetime Achievement Award arrives at the height of the iconic septuagenarian's umpteenth comeback. A wildly acclaimed two-years-and-counting world tour has seen Cohen storm the gates of [...]

WILLIE NELSON

WILLIE NELSON For a great many years, I avoided country music like it was the plague. The thing was, in my youth the only country I was exposed to was the 60's Grand Ole Opry style, with all the sequins, cheesy orchestration, and more slide guitar in each song than anyone could possibly need on a whole album. Thankfully, the many years I spent on the retail end of the music industry allowed me to open my pallet to a much wider variety of music. Thanks to this, I belatedly became a huge fan [...]

For my dad

For my dad Stu Smith, 1936-2009 My dad passed away on Christmas Eve. He was a great guy who always got the most out of life. He loved his old sailboat and his old cabin in the north woods (even though it lacked indoor plumbing). He also loved a cold beer and a good tune. To honor his memory I decided to resurrect this blog and post a few of his favorite songs here. Those of you who have spent time with Stu will remember hearing many of them on the boat, by [...]

Reasons To Quite Like Willie Nelson

Reasons To Quite Like Willie Nelson So, my son's been playing with my iPhone a lot recently. I plug it in today, and notice that he's been playing one song quite a bit, ten times in the past few days, in fact. And rather appropriately, given the day, it's Willie Nelson's version of that old Merle Haggard track, "Reasons To Quit". Good, eh? He's a talented boy, I tell you. Hope you are all feeling chipper after last night's partying. I'm feeling hungover, which is bizarre given I only [...]
